They sure are:
wes@homer$ /usr/local/office52/program
bash: /usr/local/office52/program: is a directory
wes@homer$ /usr/local/office52/program/soffice
/usr/local/office52/program/soffice: /usr/bin/test: not found
Then it continues to run the binary. Perhaps the port could fix this
minor bobble? And include a packing list so it can be deleted?
Other than that, it seems to work OK. 44 seconds to startup and shutdown;
it still isn't exactly a speed daemon.
